I guess I could have gave a little info on the engine :) it's a 420cc fully forged internals, ported head, 65lbs valve springs and billet retainers. 33mm mikuni carb and runs on alcohol. Will have roller rockers tomorrow due to a few bent pushrods from stamped rocket arms not taking rpm.

Hell yea. Love the sound of those big block's. Im very jealous. Sold all my stuff last summer after having our first child. For anyone that hasn't seen a dirt oval kart race. You owe it to yourself to go watch one. Very competitive racing! What do you think that engine is making hp wise? Around 40ish?

I'd say between 30 and 40hp. I'll just take that as a complement. Once the crap weather stops I'll post what track in going to on the weekends and

Invite everyone down it's cheap family type entertainment. So far ceasars creek looks like a fast nice track.
